These are adorable! So going to make these.
I have the same cupcake wrappers and was wondering did you directly bake in these or did you bake it another cupcake liner and then slip it in this pretty holder? Still got to use mine.

These cupcakes look adorable — and more importantly, delicious! I love maple syrup and am looking forward to trying these. And now I have an excuse to pick up some maple sugar from our spice store! Yum! Thanks for the inspiration, Marian.

Hi, I tried to make these cupcakes twice. The cupcakes came out fine, but the frosting never turned out. I used a candy thermometer to get it to the right temp. When I went to beat it, it never got to a spreading consistency. In fact, when I made it the second time it became so difficult to beat that it burned out the motor on my hand mixer. Do you have any idea where I went wrong?

Hi Mariah,
I’m not sure what the variable is… Hmm. Either it cooled so quickly before it was mixed? Or… ? I’m so sorry your hand mixer motor burned out!
Maybe try in a KitchenAid mixer if you have one?
